lyrics

There was blood spilt on the floor
On a cold summers night
As the flashing lights came closer
I was alone, left to fight

And the rain it grew louder
And the wind began to roar
A bullet in each chamber
And the time it takes to draw

I’ll take a shot between your eyes
You can bet I won’t think twice
And straighten out my Old Black Tie

He’ll be gone from this wasteland
When the sky’s blazed in gold
Turning round to say
“No esta vez amigo!”

And now the slate is clean
And a line’s drawn in the sand
He’ll stitch his head up, go get back
And gather up his band

I’ll take a shot between your eyes
You can bet I won’t think twice
And straighten out my Old Black Tie

I’ll stare the devil in his eyes
And play his game with broken dice
And straighten out my Old Black Tie

I’ve got a price
It’s on the back of my head
I see demons and pistol smoke and flashes of lead
My ears won’t stop ringing and my head feels a mess
I try to walk away with a sharp pain in my chest

I look down at my tie, it’s covered in red
I thought it was over but I eluded the dead
I feel so untouchable, incredible
Now I’m standing right here
Dancing with the devil

I’ll take a shot between your eyes
You can bet I won’t think twice
And straighten out my Old Black Tie

And as I ride into the light
A million dollars by my side
I’ll straighten out my Old Black Tie
